Effect of Routine Varicella Immunization on the Epidemiology and Immunogenicity of Varicella and Shingles

open access: yesViruses, 2022
Varicella-zoster virus (VZV) causes varicella as a primary infection and remains latent in the ganglia until it becomes reactivated to cause herpes zoster. Individuals with varicella develop adaptive humoral and cell-mediated immunity.

Varicella-zoster virus (VZV)

open access: yesUirusu, 2010
Varicella-zoster virus (VZV) causes varicella in primary infection and zoster after reactivation from latency. Both herpes simplex virus (HSV) and VZV are classified into the same alpha-herpesvirus subfamily. Although most VZV genes have their HSV homologs, VZV has many unique biological characteristics.

Immune evasion during varicella zoster virus infection of keratinocytes

open access: yes, 2009
Summary T cells are sensitized during varicella-zoster virus (VZV) infection and are important for control of viral spread and reactivation.

The Host Cell Factor Phosphatase‐2A Subunit PR130 Restricts Replication of Herpes Simplex Virus Type‐1

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Molecular, genetic, virological, and biochemical analysis in combination with global proteome and phosphoproteome profiling and functional assays were applied to study the role of PR130 in the context of HSV‐1 replication. The observations reveal that host‐intrinsic mechanisms regulate HSV‐1 replication and highlight PR130 as a susceptibility factor of

Varicella zoster-associated progressive lower cranial and upper cervical polyneuropathy: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2022
Background Multiple cranial neuropathies carry a wide range of differential diagnoses, and when combined with cerebrospinal fluid monocytosis they often suggest an infective etiology. Reactivation of varicella zoster virus has been associated with a wide

Lipoproteins of varicella-zoster virus

open access: yesJournal of General Virology, 1990
Human fibroblast cells infected with varicella-zoster virus (VZV) showed a slight increase in lipoprotein synthesis, with the production of two major viral lipoproteins, as detected by radioimmunoprecipitation (RIP). Three bands of Mr 73,000, 90,000 and 97,000 were identified as forms of the VZV gpI glycoprotein.

Membrane‐Permeable Nucleoside T‐1106 Diphosphate and Triphosphate Analogues as Antiviral Pronucleotides

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Favipiravir (T‐705) and the non‐fluorinated counterpart (T‐1106) are antiviral agents that inhibit the RNA‐dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) of various RNA viruses. The antiviral efficacy of nucleoside analogues is strongly dependent on their intracellular activation by cellular kinases to produce their corresponding triphosphate metabolites (T‐705‐RTP ...

Severe Complications of Varicella Zoster Virus Infection in Two Children

open access: yes, 2018
Infection with Varicella Zoster virus, which is the causative agent of chickenpox, is commonly seen during childhood. It has typically a benign course and can be substantially prevented by vaccination.

Burden and Correlates of Multiple Chronic Infections and Their Associations With Cancer Incidence in Chinese Adults: A Large Case‐Cohort Study

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
While several oncogenic pathogens cause site‐specific cancers, uncertainties remain about many other chronic infections and combined pathogen effects, especially in non‐Western populations. Using a large case–cohort study nested within the China Kadoorie Biobank, the authors found that co‐infection was common, with a mean of 10 pathogens per individual.

Contemporaneous varicella and zoster or disseminated zoster? A diagnostic challenge in an HIV-positive child

open access: yesSouthern African Journal of Infectious Diseases
Primary infection with Varicella-Zoster virus causes varicella (chickenpox). Thereafter, following reactivation after a period of latency, it can cause zoster (shingles).
